Posts Tagged ‘Groceries’

I had such a relaxing weekend. I’m watching Keeping Up With the Kardashians right now, and they’re showing Khloe’s wedding. I guess I don’t get it… how can you marry someone after knowing them for a month? Do you guys think that will work? For their sake, I hope it does… but, wow!

So, I went grocery shopping this morning. Lately, I’ve been starting at Trader Joe’s and then stopping at Kroger for whatever else I need. I go grocery shopping every other week and normally spend ~$70; today I spent $66.46. What do you spend on groceries per month?

I knew that I was going to my parents’ house for dinner, so I was tempted to pick up this Kroger pumpkin pie for dessert. $3.99? Something didn’t seem right about that. I looked at the ingredient list and it was like a mile long! Gross.

Here’s what I got:

Do you think I got enough squash? Spaghetti, acorn & butternut. 🙂

On the way to my parents’ house…

I always read my mom’s Real Simple… I think it’s time to get a subscription!

Yikes! Look what I read:

I will be washing my hands even more frequently after reading that!

My mom was making a turkey dinner, so she put me in charge of making frosting for the carrot cake.

Cream Cheese Frosting:

1 pkg (8 oz) Neufchatel (1/3 fat cream cheese)

3 1/2 cups confectioner’s sugar

1/2 c unsalted butter, softened

1 1/4 tsp vanilla

Look- it’s Lulu! –>

Whenever I go through an “I want a shih tzu” phase, I just rent this little blue & brown-eyed girl for the weekend or when my parents go out of town!
